It’s a proven fact that art has a profound effect on our emotions. A study by the University of Arizona found that looking at artwork increases positive emotions and reduces negative ones.

So why not take advantage of this? After all, a little pick-me-up never hurt anyone.

These two things weirdly complement each other and result in many hilarious jokes that perfectly capture the modern human condition. To find them, all you have to do is scroll down and enjoy!

While you're at it, don't forget to check out a conversation with art historian Jennifer Dasal, who kindly talked with us more about classic art memes.
